We do know that Sony is working towards releasing the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for its Sony Xperia Z3 flagship smartphone (for the moment, at least, which has just seen a purple edition roll out in Hong Kong with whispers of an Xperia Z4 in the pipeline, too) some time in February – which ain’t too far away, actually. Well, having said that, Sony is also on track to debut several new on-screen soft keys that you can see from the images posted above. These soft keys have definitely been on the receiving end of some revamp and redesign as opposed to the existing batch of soft keys which Xperia users make use of daily.
These new soft keys can be seen in new screenshots that were sourced from Sony’s recently updated Movie Creator app. It is rather surprising to know that Sony has not yet gone ahead with a full adoption of AOSP’s set of soft keys, which would definitely have a resemblance to Sony’s very own PlayStation icons.
Apart from that, do expect to see the slew of other Android 5.0 Lollipop make their way to the devices that are in line for the newest Android update, where among them include the new default runtime (ART), which is a revamped carousel-like recent tasks switcher, in addition to a slew of performance improvements.
